Descriptive Summary Title: St. Mark's Episcopal Church Records, Dates: 1862-2006 Creator: Abstract: St. Mark's Episcopal Church (Charleston, S.C.). St. Mark's Episcopal Church was organized as an independent parish in 1865 by a group of prominent black Episcopalians who were without a place to worship- since most of the white Episcopalian churches were evacuated in Charleston as a result of the city's occupation by Union Forces. The church's first service was held on Easter Sunday, April 16, 1865. The congregation continued to grow and in 1870 a lot at the corner of Warren and Thomas Streets in historic Radcliffeboro was purchased for the erection of a permanent church building, which was designed by architect, Louis J. Barbot. The cornerstone of the building was laid on October 26, 1877, and the completed structure was consecrated on November 8, 1878. St. Mark's early membership included leaders and families from the community, business and professional persons, and skilled artisans who contributed to the building of the city. The collection contains materials relating to the establishment, development and operation of the St. Mark's Episcopal Church; including administrative records such as a register of church services, meeting minutes and proceedings, and a Sunday school roll book; financial records that include account books, ledgers and treasurer reports; and items documenting church membership, such as parish registers. Also present in the collection are materials relating to the acquisition and maintenance of the church. The St. Mark's Episcopal Church Records date from 1862-2005, with bulk dates spanning the years 1965-1984. Extent: Repository: 3.48 linear feet(10 archival boxes) Avery Research Center at the College of Charleston Call Number: AMN 1121 Language of Material: Material in English Historical Note St. Mark's Episcopal Church was organized as an independent parish in 1865 by a group of prominent black Episcopalians who were without a place to worship- since most of the white Episcopalian churches were evacuated in Charleston as a result of the city's occupation by Union Forces. The church's first service was held on Easter Sunday, April 16, 1865. Immediately after the service an organizational meeting was held and the following were elected to manage the affairs of the congregation: S. L. Bennett, Chairman; J. N. Gregg. Secretary; R.E. DeReef, Treasurer; as well as B.K. Kinloch, J. Wheaton, R Holloway, S. O'Hear, J. B. Mushington, and Lydia Frost. Based on an Act of the Legislature passed in February of 1863, the Vestry and Wardens of St. Mark's applied for incorporation as a legal entity with the "Rights, Power and Privileges of a Congregation according to the doctrine, discipline, and worship of the Protestant Episcopal Church in this State." This charter was duly registered in Charleston on October 24, 1866. In 1870 a lot at the corner Inventory of the St. Mark's Episcopal Church Records, 1862-2006 Page 3

of Warren and Thomas Streets in historic Radcliffeboro was purchased in the sum of about $5,000 for the erection of a permanent church building. The congregation accepted a temple form design by Louis J. Barbot, which had been used by seven other churches in Charleston. However, St. Mark's may have been one of the last of that style built in America-and was the only one in the city of Charleston built of wood. The cornerstone of the building was laid on October 26, 1875, and the completed structure was consecrated on November 8, 1878. St. Mark's was served by a number of eminent priests during its first years; not the least of whom was Rev. A. Toomer Porter, founder of the Porter Military Academy and the Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion in Charleston. By the end of the 19th century, St. Mark's had the second highest membership and ranked fifth in its diocese for monetary contributions. St. Mark's early membership included leaders and families from the community; business and professional persons; and skilled artisans who contributed to the building of the city of Charleston. Other members have included the owner of one of the largest wholesale and retail seafood businesses in Charleston; photography studio owner, Walter N. Boags; Herbert A. DeCosta, Jr. (1923-2008), renowned African American architect and contractor; numerous educational leaders including a principal of Avery Institute, Florence A. Clyde; the first black faculty members of the College of Charleston and the Baptist College, such as Dr. Eugene C. Hunt; as well as officers and participants of organizations like the N.A.A.C.P.
